Hacking your home-reverse engineering wireless transmission
summary
Reverse engineers Nexa power remotes and commodity weather sensors to control a car heater, proving the method works end to end: capture with a cheap 1.2 kr FM receiver or $10 sound card and Audacity, decode pulse lengths into symbols, reproduce with an Arduino or Raspberry Pi transmitter, and find a 256‑address space that lets many outlets be controlled. Uses a logic analyzer option, a cigar‑box humidity rig to map sensor bits, and reports successful real‑world automation. 1.2 kr FM receiver $10 sound card 256 address space
